Chuck Carlton, Big 12 football beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answers your questions about the league in a live chat Wednesday. Here are some highlights.
Looks like Tom Herman went on Houston radio to talk about his UH exit and the Longhorns. Said he was surprised that the team wasn't as deep as one would think given the "two ballyhooed recruiting classes in back-to-back years." Thoughts on that?
Chuck Carlton: I've heard the same thing from Herman. It's not a surprise. It's also a bit of a pushback against the "cake is baked" characterization of the program from Charlie Strong just before he left, the idea that 10 wins may be a given.
